Under The RadarLily MoayeriOct 2, 2013
Season 1 Review: More risk-taking with the jokes and stepping up to the comedy from the rest of the cast and the show might eventually become something--and that's only if they can come up with enough stories for what is essentially a thin, workplace/home life crossover sitcom. Read full review

Los Angeles TimesMary McNamaraOct 2, 2013
Season 1 Review: Unfortunately, though Wilson remains gorgeously fearless in her willingness to go all in, neither the network nor Wilson (she is an executive producer) know quite what to do with that. Read full review

San Francisco ChronicleDavid WiegandOct 1, 2013
Season 1 Review: There is something here for sure but the show has yet to find its footing. Read full review

The A.V. ClubEmily VanDerWerffSep 30, 2013
Season 1 Review: This is one that is built so thoroughly around a personality that it seems like someone forgot to fill the actual show in around the edges of that personality. Read full review

Newark Star-LedgerVicki HymanFeb 13, 2014
Season 1 Review: The humor is generally broad, although Wilson doesn't always play it that way, and when she showcases a bit of wry, knowing wit we remember from "Pitch Perfect," I see glimmers of hope. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Super Fun Night isn’t entirely super-bad, but so far that’s about the good thing to be said about it. Read full review

Season 1 Review: Don’t be a version of a sitcom character that we’ve seen before. And be a character. Don’t just be Rebel Wilson in a star vehicle. Read full review

TV Guide MagazineMatt RoushOct 2, 2013
Season 1 Review: The grotesque extremes to which Wilson stoops to get laughs in this frenetic vehicle have a whiff of desperation.... Her workplace feels like a retread of elements of Sara Rue's Less Than Perfect. Read full review

Philadelphia Daily NewsEllen GrayOct 2, 2013
Season 1 Review: It's a slight enough premise but one that could work if Kimmie had even a quarter of the confidence of her creator. Read full review

The New York TimesAlessandra StanleyOct 1, 2013
Season 1 Review: Ms. Wilson is an original who has proved that she can be very funny, and a premiere episode is rarely the best indicator of how a show will develop. But the first glimpse of Super Fun Night is disappointing. Read full review

Season 1 Review: This show doesn’t have to be super. It does have to be fun. Read full review

VarietyBrian LowrySep 27, 2013
Season 1 Review: While Wilson’s boisterous personality can’t help but occasionally charm, the material is relatively slight, and having now seen two stabs at establishing the central trio, one fears the idea bank isn’t nearly as deep as it should be. Read full review
